- the headset 1 can receive music data which the audio player 2 transmits through the A2DP connection for streaming, and can transmit remote control signals to the audio player 2 through the AVRCP connection.
- the headset 1 performs radio communications with the audio player 2 on the basis of Bluetooth(R). Therefore, the radio communication device 107 of the headset 1 is configured to receive radio signals by using any of the classes determined by the Bluetooth(R) technology, i.e., at any of output levels.
- the D/A conversion amplifier circuit 105 is configured to enable switching between two modes: a mode in which outputs of the headset 1 are reproduced as 5. 1ch sound after being converted into Dolby surround sound; and a mode in which outputs of the headset 1 are reproduced as 2ch sound without conversion.
- FIG. 4 illustrates the system configuration the D/A conversion amplifier circuit 105 incorporates for the mode switching.
- a switch 1052 controls whether or not audio data should be supplied to a decoder 1051, which converts input audio data into Dolby sound data.
- the radio communication device 107 of the headset 1 keeps using class 2 and the D/A conversion amplifier circuit 105 keeps executing data conversion to produce Dolby sound data.
- the headset 1 operates in one of the four modes below, depending upon how the radio communication device 107 and the D/A conversion amplifier circuit 105 should operate. The mode selection is made by the user, and the environment setting unit 103 manages the results of selection.
- class 2 covers a range of up to 10 meters or so when the output level is somewhere between 0.25 mW and 2.5 mW (4 dBm), and class 3 covers a range of about several meters when the output level is not more than 1 mW (0 dBm).
- the switching from class 2 to class 3 is disadvantageous in that the wireless connection (link) between the headset 1 and the audio player 2 is likely to be degraded. Nevertheless, the power consumption can be reduced, and the continuous operation time can be lengthened.
- the headset 1 provides the operation mode of type A for those users who want to maintain class 2 without lengthening the continuous operation time even when the battery capacity is running short, and who attach importance to high sound quality as well.
- the headset 1 also provides three operation modes of types B, C and D for those users who want to lengthen the continuous operation time.
- the operation mode of type B is selected, the communication mode is switched from class 2 to class 3.
- the operation mode of type C is selected, the sound quality is degraded.
- the operation mode of type D is selected, the communication mode is switched from class 2 to class 3 and simultaneously the sound quality is degraded.
- FIG. 5 illustrates the operating principles underlying the system control the headset 1 executes; it is a flowchart showing how the headset 1 executes system control.
- the central processing controller 100 of the headset 1 controls the D/A conversion amplifier circuit 105 to turn on the Dolby system.
- the central processing controller 100 informs the radio communication device 107 that class 2 should be used as the communication mode (Step S1).
- the central processing controller 100 monitors the automatic battery detector 101 to see whether this detector detects that the remaining battery capacity is less than the predetermined value (Step S2). If this state is detected ("YES" in Step S2), a check is made to see whether or not the operation mode is type A (Step S3).
- the central processing controller 100 does not switch communication modes or turn off the Dolby system. Instead, the central processing controller 100 outputs warning sound (such as beeps) to inform the user that the remaining battery capacity has become lower than the predetermined value (Step S4). Where the operation mode is not type A ("NO" in Step S3), the central processing controller 100 checks whether the present operation mode is either type B or type D (Step S5).
- the central processing controller 100 controls the radio communication device 107 to switch the communication mode from class 2 to class 3 (Step S6). In addition, the central processing controller 100 checks whether the operation mode is either type C or type D (Step S7). If this is the case ("YES" in Step S7), the central processing controller 100 controls the D/A conversion amplifier circuit 105 to turn off the Dolby system (Step S8).
- Step S7 determines that the operation mode is neither type C nor type D ("NO" in Step S7), the central processing controller 100 outputs a warning sound to inform the user that the remaining battery capacity has become lower than the predetermined value (Step S4).
- the headset 1 when the remaining battery capacity has become lower than the predetermined value, the headset 1 merely outputs a warning sound in the operation mode of type A, and not only outputs a warning sound but also switches communication modes in the operation mode of type B. In the operation mode of type C the headset 1 merely turns off the Dolby system, and in the operation mode of type D the headset not only turns off the Dolby system but also switches communication modes. Where the Dolby system is turned off, this acts as a warning to the user, and no particular warning sound is output.
- the present invention can reduce the power consumption to lengthen the continuous operation time, on the basis of the user's request.
